Enchanted Woods

We are going to the Treehouse's Enchanted Woods next Friday (10th) at 6:00pm. We would love anyone to join us all you need to do is call the Treehouse and get your tickets. The tickets are $4.00 for members and $5.00 for non-members. Parents do not need a ticket. Our kids will be dressing in their Halloween costumes but you do not have to dress up. This is a really fun thing the treehouse puts on every October its kind of like trick-or-treating. The kids get to move around in a group throughout Treehouse and listen to stories from different characters they give out little treats (candy, crayons, books, etc.) at each of the stops. We have gone every year and its always a blast. I hope to see you there! YOU NEED TO GET YOUR TICKETS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! THEY SELL OUT EVERY YEAR!

Good deals

Albertsons has a few good deals this week. Powerade is only .69 cents. Pork chops and chicken were on sale for 1/2 off. Del Monte canned peaches (chunks with calcium added) were 4 for $5 and if you spend $20.00 you get five dollars off. I also got a 5% off coupon for next time (or anytime before December I think) for my whole shopping order.

Coupons

So I have tried to use the coupons from the sunday paper before and have never gotten really good at it or have given up after awhile, but I want to try and get really into it. My sister-in-law has been doing it and she saves a TON of money. I followed her advice the other day and when I went to the store I got...

-8 bags of malt-o-meals cereal
-20 cans of soup
-1 bottle of apple juice
-2 bottles V8 splash
-5 cans of green beans
-1 package toilet paper (12 giant rolls)

I got all that for like $25 and saved $45. So anyone who is interested in trying to get into coupons or does use them and wants to share tips, let me know. I figure we could try and help each other figure it out and update each other with good deals :)

A Day at the Zoo Anyone?

Janika and I are talking about going to the zoo thursday (the 18th) if anyone wants to join us. We will probably be there in the early afternoon until 3 or 4. Just call either Jeana or Janika and let us know if you want to come. Invite friends too, the more the merrier :)

Running

I try to run every night around 7:45 or 8:00. I usually run for 30 min just around the neighborhood. Its really good because the streets are not busy and there are hills and flat parts and you don't get too board. send me a text or call me if you want to go one night. you can totally bring kids if you want to ... I try to run without them just because its easier..... I would suggest bringing an ipod .. I won't be able to talk while I run I'm not in that good of shape.

I am up for exercise whenever. During the day is better for me. I like to go to Riverdale park and walk around the track and then let Landon play after. But I'm up to go anywhere, I just most likely will have to bring Landon.

I need the exercise!

I would love to be in an exercise group, but I would have to wait until spring, if it's outdoors! So, if you guys get a group together I would love to join after the baby is here!
